Ingredients:
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1-2 tablespoons sugar (optional, depending on sweetness preference)
- 1 (16-oz) bag frozen corn, thawed and drained (at least 30min thawing at room temp)
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup sour cream
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 8oz bacon, cooked until crispy and diced
- 1-2 jalapenos, minced (adjust for preferred heat level)
- 1.5 cups grated cheddar cheese, divided
- Optional: Chopped green onions for garnish


Preparation:
1) Position the oven rack in the center and preheat to 350F. Generously grease a 9x13-inch baking dish, ensuring every corner is covered so that the casserole doesn't stick.
2) In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until evenly combined.
3) Add the thawed corn, milk, and sour cream to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir the mixture to combine, making sure there are no dry spots.
4) Pour in the melted butter, add a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper, and fold in most of the bacon, jalapenos, and 1 cup of cheddar cheese. Mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the casserole dense.
5) Pour the cornbread mixture into the prepared baking dish, using a spatula to spread it evenly.
6) Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7) Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the remaining bacon, 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese, and a handful of green onions (if using) on top. Return the dish to the oven for a few more minutes, just until the cheese melts.
8) Let the casserole cool for a few minutes, then serve it warm.
